Microsoft had
shown whole state of Jammu & Kashmir (J&K) as
"DISPUTED" in one of its mapping software (MapPoint)
Our site had brought this issue before the company. Microsoft's International
Public Relations Manager Helen Aaricke had said "the company was aware of
complaints against the map and was taking it seriously. It had begun
investigations, she added."
Microsoft ‘remaps’ India, opens window to dispute
Over 18,000 visitors expressed their concern over this map at our website. The
issue was covered by media in
India,
Pakistan and in USA
As of today, Microsoft has removed the world “DISPUTED” from J
& K map.
The following images show how Microsoft has represented J&K then and
now. These are is not the original images. The current version of the J&K map
is available at their
Mappoint website.

The FACTS:
Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of
India by the 'Instrument of Accession of Jammu and Kashmir State to
India'. India objects to the word "DISPUTED" to J&K. Even the United
Nations has never made a mistake of using the word "DISPUTED" in J&K map.
In reality Pakistan was to have vacated J&K under the UN Resolution that
it accepted but did not comply with. The only disputed territories are
'Pak Occupied Kashmir (POK)' and 'China Occupied Kashmir (COK)'.
